Although you are not
required to make an engine-off landing as part of the British NPPL syllabus, at Microlight Scotland every student
will have done at least one to give them the feeling of truly gliding a microlight.

The official Bronze Colibri award requirements are:
a. 20 hours solo in microlight aircraft including at least 50 logged flights.
b. 3 precision landings within 10 metres (33 ft) of the centre of a given spot.
c. 1 precision landing within 20 metres (66 ft) of the centre of a given spot from a height of 1000 ft
(300 metres) AGL with the
throttle fully closed. Demonstration of correct go-around (overshoot) procedure.
d. Two 75 kilometer (46.6 mile) cross-country flights over a triangular course, one with an outlanding
at a designated point along
the route.

The Colibrii Awards are made in order of bronze, silver and gold. We can help you with application forms
for your bronze award so you can start the Colibri Challenge.
